Well-Being

Please ask us about our daily mindfulness sessions!

A few reminders

  • Please ensure your child has a spare mask in their bags just in case theirs breaks or gets lost.
  • Hats - your child needs a hat to access all the play areas and for PE lessons.
  • Water bottles
  • Naming property - Please put your child's name and class code on all their uniform, shoes, hats and water bottles to ensure a safe return if they get left behind!

Optional afternoon snack before the bus

As students currently cannot eat on the bus, you are welcome to send in a snack that they can eat in class in the afternoon before they get on the bus. We will provide a window of time each day where they can eat this snack before their bus journey. Please remember that we are a nut free school and remind your child that they cannot share their snack with anyone.

Learning

The Outdoor Classroom

We all had a wonderful time in the outdoor classroom this week! We observed many different living (and non-living things!)

Junk modelling

Unfortunately, at this time, we cannot accept and recycling from home for junk modelling. Thanks very much to those who have tried to send things in.

The Term One Curriculum

We are continuing with our focus on Habitats through the story of 'The Snail and the Whale'. Please see you individual class blogs for more specific information about your classes learning.

ORT Home reading books - a reminder

The children will be changing their reading books every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Please make sure they return their books once they have read them. If you are unsure of your child's library day, then please contact your child's class teacher.

Global Citizenship

Musician of the Month!

Every month Primary Music features a Musician of the Month during lessons. We include a diverse range of performers, arrangers and composers.

This month we are celebrating the music of Celia Cruz.

Celia was born in Cuba in 1925 and moved to the US during the Cuban revolution. She became associated with ‘Salsa’ a Cuban dance music that became popular in the 1960s with her rhythmic singing and rich voice.

This month we are celebrating the music of Celia Cruz and our video of the week is one of Celia’s most famous salsa songs:

La Vida Es Un Carnaval - Life is a party!
